Hi open target community,
I am exploring the source data of open target, and find two interesting folders in the ftp site:
http://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/opentargets/platform/latest/output/etl/parquet/
The interesting folders are ebisearchEvidence and ebisearchAssociations.
I can’t map the folder to anything described in the documentation of open targets. I am wondering if these are the associations obtained from user search behavior in the ebi search engine (similar to something like google trends).
Just curious.
Thanks!
Best,
Mengyi
Hi @mengysun! 
Thanks for posting your question about the ebisearchEvidence and ebisearchAssociations datasets. These are generated by our ETL pipeline and are consumed by our colleagues at EMBL-EBI to power their search functionality (e.g. search for ESR1).
These datasets do not provide any additional insights – rather, they are a subset of our available associations and evidence datasets.
Cheers!
